Man Arrested for Impersonating Himachal SP to Restore Power at Gurugram ShopPreviousNext

Police arrested a South Delhi man for impersonating a Himachal Pradesh Superintendent of Police to pressure authorities into restoring electricity at his wife's shop in Gurugram's Mega Mall. The accused called the local SHO, claiming to be SP Chandan Singh and invoked the DGP's name to influence action. Suspicious, police verified the claim and found it false, leading to the man's arrest. An FIR was filed, and investigations continue to check for similar incidents.
